===General===
{{Main|Osteochondroma}}
*Benign.
*Very common.
*Abnormal outgrowth of bone and cartilage - associated with growth plate.
*Usually present before age 20.<ref name=pmid12873205>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Parkin | first1 = B. | last2 = Bennett | first2 = JC. | last3 = Zaher | first3 = A. | title = Pathologic quiz case: an iliac mass in a 25-year-old woman.

*Mushroom-like shape - with broad or narrow base.
 
Note:
*Very unusual in craniofacial bones.<ref name=pmid12873205/>
 
===Microscopic===
Features:<ref name=pmid12873205/>
*Bone - forms base of "mushroom".
*Cartilage - layer usu. thinner in older individuals.
**Lobular arrangement<ref name=upmc_case341>URL: [http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case341/dx.html http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case341/dx.html]. Accessed on: 19 September 2012.</ref> - clusters of 3-12 lacunae (separated by stroma).
**May have mild atypia.
**Nuclear enlargement - up to 5x normal.
*[[Perichondrium]] - covers the cartilage.
**Thin layer of cells - higher cellular density than cartilage.
***Bland spindle cells in a fibrous (eosinophilic) stroma.
 
Notes:
*Benign cartilage - one chondrocyte per lacuna, small and round nucleus, no binucleation.
 
DDx:
*[[Chondrosarcoma]] - esp. in older individuals.
